Web Site Redevelopment
Hi There,
I had posted a similar project on this site a few months ago but the project did not go ahead. I am now relisting a similar but expanded project that I am looking at completing in the next couple of months – no rush just trying to find someone who can do it and get ideas before starting. (time frame for this is form completion about September)
I have a web site – www.geronamo.com.au. It has the basic design I would like, except I want to change a few things. It has quite a lot of flash which I can’t update myself. I currently update the rest of the web site in Contribute. Can you please look at the site and tell me if you can do the following and give me an estimate of cost:
1. Remove the Flash or make it so that I can update the flash elements. This is mainly on the home page.
2. Photos section – I would like this redone so that the photo section shows photos along the lines of something like Picasa. Have a look at my own picasa family albums and see if this would be incorporated into the site or if a similar one can be added to the site. http://picasaweb.google.com/craigandclaire. I would also like to be able to upload photos myself – I currently can’t do that. I would also like to be able top add a watermark at the bottom of each photo to make it harder to copy them.
3. I would ideally like to be able to update and edit content on the site on line instead of using Contribute. Can you enable this with the current design?
4. I don’t like the current font. I would like something a little crisper and cleaner. Can this be done throughout the whole site?
5. You’ll notice banners in the team building section. For example Hollywood Blockbusters has a banner. Can you design these? if so how much to design a banner?
6. I want to move several things around on the home page.
a. I would like to move the large flash file / pictures, which rotates with the 5 main program areas about half way down the page under the video section, and put it in place of the free teambuilding ideas blue flash banner.
b. I would like to move the ‘free teambuilding ideas’ blue flash banner to the right hand side and make it one of the smaller buttons.
c. I would like to move the 6 ‘hot programs’ to the right hand side and move all of the right hand side buttons underneath to the bottom of the home page. I would like to change some of the names of the right hand side buttons and I will let you know what those changes are later on.
7. I do not like some of the colours – for example the green and orange could be changed to different hues or even changed altogether in place of other colours. I am thinking of getting rid of green altogether from the site.
8. What do you do in the way of SEO? I would like to ensure our site is optimised for best SEO.
9. I would like certain keywords placed into the site but I unsure how to insert them.
10. I would like another 3 basic web sites created that I can link back to this site for optimisation purposes. Do you have basic web templates and how much for 3 of them.
11. I currently have the weather on the front page for 3 areas. I would like to have a seperate weather section now and remove the weather from the front page. I would like to add the weather for 3 other areas into the weather section.
12. I would like to add a blog to the site.
13. In the contact us area or make a booking area I would like people to put in a verification setting to prevent bots from taking our email addresses and using to them to add to spam lists.
14. I would like to put a little texture into the side bar menus. Instead of them being a green block of colour I would like the to have a texture something like the side bar menu in this example at this web address: http://psdvibe.com/tutorials/photo_gallery_layout/Picture%2036.jpg Note the grey side bar and how each selection has a different shade of grey.
15. I’d like to add some more text to the front page – yet to be decided what that text would be.
I think that’s about all for now. Of course there will be some ongoing maintenance and changes to the web sites so if you can provide me your charges for such activities I would appreciate it.
Please look at the www.geronamo.com.au web site before coming back to me with general prices. I have had the site developed and am generally happy with the design. I am now only interested in modifying that design and replies based on telling me if you can match my requirements above.
Kind regards
Craig Wallace
